Olympic coverage

Disappointed that the BBC are only showing the finals of the Skeet, 24 channels, and about 10 events on.

Not that it helps, but given the BBC's usual stance on matters shooting I'm fairly surprised they're showing anything at all. smile2

The BBC are showing every single event live apparently. We watched the finals of the women's 10m air rifle Saturday however that was at my parents and was on Sky. Eurosport are also doing some good coverage.

Very poor indeed, whether you can find more coverage on the internet from some foreign channels ? Not sure.

I watched a bit of the air rifle shooting on Saturday, bit like watching paint dry to be honest, doubt we will see any of the British entrants if they are only showing finals.

It is a bit of a shame, as I am getting quite into the clays. I watched the women's final and out of 100 clays they seem to classify the first 75 clays as qualifying (not shown), and the last 25 as the final where only about the last 6 or 8 go through.

I have heard then state exactly that on the radio - "... never miss any action, we are showing you everything and will bring news of any records that might be broken."

Certainly for the Women's Skeet, as mentioned already, the Qualifying was not shown, and there was no warning of the OR being smashed. What was shown, was reasonable coverage, and the commentator said very little and no inane cr4p!
